Photo Update: The Not-So-Obvious
Since everybody has thoroughly covered Soarin/The Land in their updates, I thought I'd focus on some of the other not-so-obvious stuff around the parks. (That being said, did anyone else notice that each of the four seating areas at Sunshine Seasons now seem to be color-themed to a seperate season?)
On to the updates, in no particular order...
EP: The new stage in front of American Adventure has thankfully been themed so it looks like part of the pavillion from across the lagoon. The old one was just like a white tarp on the lagoon side. This one is like colonial brick. Looks more like the pavillion looked from future world in the good old days...
EP: Disneyland banners on American Adventure...
MK: At night, the castle is being lit more and more in gold, obviously a nod to the 50th. Talk about moving -- I was standing on the ramp to the castle when the Kiss Goodnight began. By the way -- the "mirror" was not rotating when I was there -- it was just stuck on the WDW castle scene.
MK: The big stone globe in Tomorrowland is FINALLY floating on water. You can now move it -- it had been pretty much drydocked for ages.
EP: This relatively small banner is about the only thing (aside from a brief mention in the guidemaps) to indicate that the preview center for Hong Kong is up and running.
EP: Interesting concept art for the trains and buses at HKDL...
MK: A quick photo of Wishes over IASW (the queue line looks amazing!)
